ShieldFELT XTRAShield
High Performance Felt Membranes
XTRAShield is Shield’s range of high performance, polymer modified felt membranes designed to be used in inverted and warm flat roof build ups. XTRAShield is ideal for waterproofing large or small areas and can be used within either a layered felt system, or as individual products that can be used independently of each other. It incorporates a cap sheet with optional mineral colours to suit any style. All exposed membrane should have a mineral finish to protect from UV rays.
XTRAShield is an SBS or APP modified bitumen based membrane, that incorporates varying weight and length rolls for use as VCL’s, underlays, intermediate layers and cap sheets with heavy duty mineral to guard against solar degradation.
Shield Membrane felts are, as standard, supplied with a thermofusible sacrificial film on the reverse to accurately gauge the correct amount of heat applied to the underside for the best possible bond and bleed.
This high performance felt is ideal for use as a 3-layer system to waterproof flat, sloped and horizontal areas in inverted and warm roof specifications. It is specifically designed, manufactured and certified to be un-compromised and resistant to temperatures down to -20°C. It is also able to withstand light foot traffic, mechanical stresses, and high temperatures. The felts all have the option of a reinforced spunbond polyester base, or reinforced glass fibre base.
Our industry leading management team have extensive experience with installation and have designed all of our felts to have a wide range of uses. When installed correctly this product has a life expectancy in excess of 25 years.
